The Lakeland College men's basketball team has received some national recognition as a team to watch in the upcoming 2013-14 season, according to DIII News, a monthly newsletter on NCAA Division III basketball.

DIII News compiled a preseason top 25 poll, and while the Muskies were not listed inside the top 25, they did appear as one of 14 in a category of 'Others to Watch.' Also, senior forward Justin Ward (Wisconsin Dells) has been recognized as an Honorable Mention All-American by DIII News, one of 53 players across the country to receive recognition.
